Education / Re: Home Schooling The Way To Go: Private Schools Now Charging Exorbitantly by martinzkingin: 9:41am On Aug 25, 2022 |
Private schools are of discerner levels, there are ones for millions, hundreds of thousands etc. I think the problem here is either to take your kids to the one you can afford or better still have lesser number of kids according to one’s finance. You don’t want proprietors to charge high fees, but we criticize them when teachers are under paid. We can’t eat our cake and have it guobe: |

Politics / Re: Things That The Next President Of Nigeria Is Expected To Put Back In Order. by martinzkingin: 6:10pm On Jul 04, 2022 |
BluntCrazeMan: In my opinion, Atiku and Tinubu are just like the devil and the deep sea. They are desperate for the presidency because of their personal selfish gains. I prefer Peter Obi. Though Peter Obi is not a Saint. I can't vouch for him that he is the all righteous, perfect messiah. Now from the premise of your question: "....being worst than the current president" I understand your line of thought, that is, many of us —I included— lampooned Goodluck Jonathan's administration. We cried for change. We wanted Buhari. We posited that he is the Moses that will lead us out of Egypt. What happened after he was elected President? His administration was(and is) significantly worst than that of GEJ. Again, from your question, I sense you want the assurance of "not again." So you are threading carefully. One thing I like about online discussions regarding Obi campaigns is the fact that whenever his critics come out in the open with their arguments to disparage him, they are silenced with sheer facts and logic, leaving these anti-Obis with no bullets in their guns than the now-clichéd rhetoric: "...but but his party(Labour Party) has no structure" I reckon that Peter Obi is far better than these other two. Peter Obi is a capitalist who have been the corporate world for a significant amount of time. From his interviews, he is envisioning Nigeria to be a producer-like country and not the handicapped consumer we currently are. I like to call him Mr Go-check-my-records. 2 Likes 2 Shares

Literature / Trump-like Nebuchadnezzar by martinzkingin: 9:18pm On Jan 27, 2021 |
CAVALIER (TRUMP-LIKE NEBUCHADNEZZAR) From the mouth of the historian who worked in the ancient Jerusalem museum. The History of King Nebuchadnezzar II . The king Nebuchadnezzar was a warior king, rebuilder of cities and a musical muse. He was the greatest military leader of the Neo-Babylonian empire. He ruled from 605 – 562 BCE in the area around the Tigris-Euphrates basin. His leadership saw numerous military successes and the construction of building works such as the famous Ishtar Gate. The famous Ishtar Gate, part of the processional way leading into the heart of the city, was constructed under Nebuchadnezzar’s rule, and is dedicated to him. The walls were decorated with images of lions, the sacred animal of Ishtar, goddess of love. His political reign witnessed many great successes, he was the first king to initiate the climate change policy establishing the late iron age symbol that saw the end of the mighty Assyrian empire around 609 BCE. My principal built the strongest military at that time, they fought many wars, exerted their super powers over the Egyptian empire whom had formed a coalition with the west to capture and overthrow him. Nebuchadnezzar was commited to rebuilding Babylon after it had been freed from Assyrian rule. He turned the city into one that was famed for its opulence and majesty throughout the ancient world. In the areas of tourism, Babylon became one of the most patronized tourist attraction of the world at that time. Nebuchadnezzar built the mysterious Hatnging gardens of Babylon as a gift for his wife Amuhia. Till date, they remain some of the greatest wonders of the world. In the area of construction, king Nebuchadnezzar, enlarged the royal palace, including in it a public museum, possibly the world's first. His administration built and repaired temples, built a bridge over the Euphrates, and constructed a grand processional boulevard decorated with gem stones. As good as his administration was, Nebuchadnezzar had a lot of shortcomings. Babylon was not an established empire, Nebuchadnezzar's father Nabopolassar captured the kingdom forcefully and put them under dictatorship rule. Nebuchadnezzar, instead of promoting freedom, captured more territories to enlarge his territory (Syria and Phoenicia were brought under the control of Babylon). Nebuchadnezzar did not stop there, instead of building bridges, he built walls, his attention was devoted to subduing his eastern and northern borders, and in 595/4 BC there was a serious but brief rebellion in Babylon itself. According to Jeremiah, he was a destroyer of nations , he looted and destroyed the temple. He captured many Hebrews, took their youths into slavery, to pay for his building projects and to maintain his army, Nebuchadnezzar had to collect very high taxes and tributes. However, before his fall Nebuchadnezzar was warned against his actions. He saw his kingdom taken away from him in a dream. After all said and done, King Nebuchadnezzar became sick, he was diagnosed of boanthropy, a disease that made him down on all fours chewing grass. Boanthropy is a psychological disorder in which the sufferer believes he or she is a cow or ox. Some said he suffered mental disorder. All this happened to King Nebuchadnezzar. Just twelve months after the interpretation of his dream, he was walking on the balcony of the royal palace in Babylon and boasted, “Look at this, Babylon the great! And I built it all by myself, a royal palace adequate to display my honour and glory!” The words were no sooner out of his mouth than a voice out of heaven spoke, “This is the verdict on you, King Nebuchadnezzar: Your kingdom is taken from you. You will be driven out of human company and live with the wild animals. You will eat grass like an ox". Nebuchadnezzar fell, the moment he boasted about his achievements and lost his sanity. (Daniel 4). That was the beginning of a disgraceful end of king Nebuchadnezzar. In a Trump-like Nebuchadnezzar manner, we witnessed how a world leader was disgraced out of power recently. Despite his successes, he had shortcomings and allowed pride to pull him down. Trump-like Nebuchadnezzar had taken credit himself for thousands of accomplishments. There was a time this former president said “I am your voice. I alone can fix it. I will restore law and order” while speaking against other nations. Trump-like Nebuchadnezzar had claimed he is “great and unmatched” in his wisdom. “As I have stated strongly before, and just to reiterate, if Turkey does anything that I, in my great and unmatched wisdom, consider to be off limits, I will totally destroy and obliterate the Economy of Turkey (I have done it before!). They must, with Europe and others, watch over…” At many instances Trump-like Nebuchadnezzar had described himself as the greatest President for Jews and for Israel in the history of the world, not just America, he said he is the best President for Israel in the history of the world…and the Jewish people in Israel love him…. like he’s the King of Israel. They love him like he is the second coming of God…But American Jews do not know him nor like him. They do not even know what they are doing nor saying anymore. It makes no sense! But that is OK, if he keeps doing what he is doing…” In the end, he was disgraced out of the white house. That is how history will remember him. "Before honuor is humility", we were told by Proverbs 15:33. It is a lesson, sadly, he never learned. And, as a result, his name will live in infamy as synonymous with dishonor and delusion. This Trump-like Nebuchadnezzar is a lesson to us all. Man wants money, power and fame but man should never equate himself with God or assume God’s glory. We as believers should detest the pompous boasting to take glory for ourselves in our accomplishments. These boasts are forms of propaganda to pull believers away from the praises that belong to our God alone. Presidents are not our saviours, of anything. Take away anything that will make me assume myself bigger than you. Take away anything that will intoxicate me with pride. Like king Nebuchadnezzar, Like King Herod, like king Cyrus. God detest pride and shuns anyone who places himself arrogantly before him or attempt to share his glory. Martins Adedeji Please share

Religion / Corona Virus; A Plague To Humanity by martinzkingin: 9:12am On Mar 22, 2020 |
Corona Virus: A plague to Humanity Martins A.F Adedeji 2 Chronicles 713-14. #state_of_mind When approaching 2Chronicles 7:13-14, one must first consider the immediate context. After Solomon dedicated the temple, the Lord appeared to him and gave him some warnings and reassurances. “The Lord appeared to him at night and said: ‘I have heard your prayer and have chosen this place for myself as a temple for sacrifices.’ When I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or command locusts to devour the land or send a plague among my people, if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” No doubt Solomon would have recognized this warning as a reiteration of Deuteronomy 28. God had entered into a covenant with Israel and promised to take care of them and cause them to prosper as long as they obeyed him. He also promised to bring curses upon them if they failed to obey. Because of the covenant relationship, there was a direct correspondence between their obedience and their prosperity, and their disobedience and their hardship. Deuteronomy 28 spells out the blessings for obedience and the curses for disobedience. Again, divine blessing and divine punishment on Israel were conditional on their obedience or disobedience. Our nation is obviously sick and in sin. Democratic convention(bre it); racial strife(rascism); riots; terrorism(al Qaeda, Boko Haram, all form of insurgency; rising crime rates; extensive drug use; loosening of moral standards; all are symptoms. Where were the peace marchers when Iran,Libya and others were invaded? When the strongest nation in the world cannot pay its debts? The America we presume has one of the most powerful nation on earth owes a high debt. In conclusion; we need to recognize sin as a national sickness, we have to bring back God to our lives( we took God away from our constitution, our school, our military, almost all our affairs and yet we want him to answer, we are all guilty. We neglected HIM. We have relied on material resources and human intellectual. No foul play, lets agree we were wrong. let's pray, let's make HIM the central of our approval. Lets turn back to him, love ourselves or else things can get worse. God just showed us that irrespective of our Religion, Race, Belief and all that. He could just wipe us all off the face of heart. Its not even judgment day, just a plague and we are here. One of our hymnal say's Onisegun nla wa nihin, Jesu abanidaro; Oro Re mu ni lara da A! Gbo ohun ti Jesu! Refrain: Iro didun lorin Seraf', Oruko idun ni ahon. Orin to dun julo ni: Jesu! Jesu! Jesu! Verse 3 of it say's Oruko Re leru mi lo Ko si oruko miran; Bokan mi ti n fe lati gbo Oruko Re 'yebiye. That is The great Physician now is near, The sympathizing Jesus; He speaks the drooping heart to cheer, Oh, hear the voice of Jesus. Sweetest note in seraph song, Sweetest name on mortal tongue; Sweetest carol ever sung, Jesus, blessed Jesus. V3 His name dispels my guilt and fear, No other name but Jesus; Oh, how my soul delights to hear The charming name of Jesus. Brethen Acts 3: 14-17 We've denied, rejected and disowned him and now we seek his pardon. Out of the ignorance of our rulers, we've killed the very source of life and now we need life. We just want to breathe. If we turn and plead the Lord, He will hear us. We can fix the world, its in us. |
